France will continue to maintain a balanced dialogue with the Danish authorities that respects the separation of powers. Paul Watson's extradition request is currently being processed by the Danish Ministry of Justice, whose independence France fully respects. It is not possible to grant asylum to Paul Watson at this stadium. Indeed, an asylum request can only be granted under French law when the person makes their request on national territory.
